I was so tired from taking my Lyrica and Norflex at 2 pm that I almost fell asleep waiting. Then in the OR, they had a lot of nurses and radiologists…more than at the other surgery center. They got me all strapped down in place and laid a blue cloth across my face because it wasn’t sterilized. I just remember the cloth going over my face and then the pain management anesthesiologist told someone how much of the drugs to give me…I don’t know if I even remember coming out of the OR. I think that longer it has been the less that I remember. I am a little sore now, and Desi & Dolly have been fed, so I am going to grab a bite and then we all can sack out in the recliner chair for a while.I took Dolly & Desi to the vet this morning for their Bordatella vaccines. He said that they are now doing it by injection for the little ones because they are more susceptible to reverse sneezing when they do the nasal spray one. Dolly weighs 8 lbs, and Desi weighs 8.1 lbs. I think that Dolly’s weight is wrong…but I would have to take her somewhere to verify that.But, Desi has an infection in his right eye. So, I have ointment to put in his eyes now. Desi needs ¼ of a Benadryl every 8 hours and Dolly gets a half of an Atarax every 12 hours for three days, then Dolly goes back to ½ of an Atarax every night.I took them today because I don’t want to be lifting them so that I can give my cervical spine the best chance at the injections taking down the swelling of the disks. But, it turned out good because if I waited another week or two, Desi’s eye infection could have been worse.That’s my day…going to sign out of everything until tomorrow.Joan
